There is one thing is particular that I noticed: Harvey said that the LA Times reported that Michael was in a coma, when TMZ had already reported that he was dead, and people who were following the LA Times were following them down a rabbithole.ARGRabbithole- Also known as a Trailhead. A Rabbithole marks the first website, contact, or puzzle that starts off the ARG.Trailhead- A deliberate clue which enables a player to discover a way into the game. Most ARGs employ a number of trailheads in several media, to maximize the probability of people discovering the game. Some trailheads may be covert, others may be thinly-disguised adverts.Our Puppetmaster- the man who runs the world from the behind the Curtain - MichaelIt's all for Love
Alternate Reality GameWikipediaBasic Principles:Narrative raised as archeology. While in other games it is necessary to transmit information in a linear fashion, here can be divided into pieces and spread all sorts of places. Find every piece together all the right way are the basis of the game. Narrative without defined platform. The fragments of information may appear as text, image, video or audio in any medium, without or only one that provides data only. Design for a mind-hive. You could follow the game on an individual basis, but the trend in a medium like the Internet makes various participants tend to unite and face the challenges together, complementing skills and dividing tasks. Real life as a means. The players, instead of interpreting characters remain themselves during the game. Instead of being someone who is investigating on their behalf in a fictional world, they themselves carry out the actions which advance the adventure. This is not a game .... Within the game, aesthetics is not aimed at any moment for the characters or the situations are part of a work of fiction... But not a hoax. Once you exit, for example, web pages that are presented, it is clear demarcation indicating where the game starts and where it ends, without attempting to mount a farce that is confused with reality. Constant Change. The information can be updated, corrected or disappear within the framework of the game, according to the fiction that it raises. Particularly direct interaction. The progress made by the group of players are transported to the game in the form of changes, but also the game is open to respond to proposals and conclusions drawn from the participants :lol:
